With an intimate wedding gathering planned, Samuel and Jennifer, a Chinese couple from Toronto, knew well ahead that having a photobooth service available to their guests would only strengthen the social atmosphere and form lifelong memories of their special day. No doubt, with a bit of help from our photobooth experts here at SDE Weddings, Toronto’s premier wedding videography, cinematography and photoboooth group, Samuel and Jennifer’s wedding celebration’s just this past Saturday. September 6th, 2014 at the Scarborough Golf and Country Club exceeded mere expectation, and became an unforgettable evening of fun, laughter and excitement for everyone. In addition, we were also pleased to receive ahead of time Samuel and Jennifer’s very own custom photobooth design examples for their wedding day photobooth’s printout layout. Indeed, it’s always refreshing to have couples engage our crew in the creative process, especially when it comes to ensuring that every little detail of their wedding day photobooth souveniers comes out perfectly. With plenty of photobooth props in hand and a handful of hats of all sizes, Sam and Jennifer’s guests were guaranteed grandiose grins from ear to ear. Have a look below to see just how much fun a photobooth experience can be with a few of our favourite snapshots.

For the celebration of a wedding with your closest family and friends, the typically migraine-inducing hurdles of weekend flyovers and time-defying jetlag become merely a minor obstacle to the fabled goal found at the end of the wedding aisle. We at SDE Weddings, Toronto’s premier wedding videography, cinematography and photobooth group, know a thing or two about jetlag, believe us. So we know that for Michael and Shaina, setting their ‘destination wedding’ here in Toronto just this past Friday, September 5th, 2014 at Toronto’s luxurious Liberty Grand was no simple feat as a couple whose home sweet home is half the country away in Vancouver. Still, we Torotonians are known for our warmth and unparalleled hospitality, and as Michael and Shaina summoned us for our permier photobooth service, we surely aimed to please as always for the couple from out-of-town. Lucky for them, this was our fourth event this year working at the Liberty Grand, and our third photobooth we’ve set up at this acclaimed Toronto wedding destination. Judging from a preview of the snapshots below, we can tell that Michael and Shaina, along with their loved ones and anyone else who flew in, felt right at home with our work. In the end, as Michael and Shaina reached their goals with their ‘destination’ wedding, we here at SDE Weddings made sure to go the extra mile to make their wedding day all the more memorable.

Nothing transcends boundaries and barriers more than an act of love, and a wedding such as this one is a testament to that undying fact. The union of Mallika and Neel was a pleasure for us to work on, and as a Toronto-based wedding videography and cinematography group, it came as a surprise when they came up north for their wedding from Washington DC and chose us for our services. In both wedding and photo-booth services, the family from the capital made sure to capitalize on the best we can offer. For the couple from across the border, most of their families and friends are in Toronto, and in a Hindu wedding ceremony fitting for the multiculturalism Toronto is known for, the celebrants held their special day on September 14, 2013, at the Grand Empire Banquet & Convention Centre (100 Nexus Avenue, Brampton ON L6P 2K9).

Wedding day started particularly early for both bride & groom to be. Mallika awoke only an inkling before 4 in the morning to begin preparations, and both Mallika and Neel were set and ready by 7 in the morning. Our crew arrived at the Hilton Garden Inn where the couple were staying and captured footage and pictures of the opening moments of an unforgettable day. Once everyone arrived at the convention centre, everyone began preparing for “baraat”, the traditional Hindu bridegroom procession. A particularly extravagant and lively display, Neel arrives and is welcomed by Mallika’s family, and the couple travel together to the wedding venue on a mare, accompanied by traditional Gujarati dancing and music from a live band. A fitting atmosphere for such a joyous occasion.

A wedding is a celebration to cement the love of two in an union fit for a lifetime, and we at SDE Weddings know how unbelievably special such a day is for everyone involved. This sentiment rang especially true for the wedding of Thuy and Long Nguyen, a Vietnamese wedding couple who’ve been together and known each other for an especially long time. A sentimental and rather ordinary meeting was the start of the story for the two, when they simply met through mutual acquaintances at a trip to Canada’s Wonderland, just north of Toronto, the premier amusement park of Canada. The two hit it off immediately, and in retrospect, it was no ‘wonder’ at all how these two made it together this far.

The wedding proper was held in Hamilton on September 28, 2013, and the wedding reception afterwards in Brampton, just southwest of Toronto. A particularly long trek for those familiar with Southern Ontario’s geography, but such trivialities as travel were not in the minds of our Toronto wedding cinematographers and videographers when they accompanied the couple and their families all throughout the day. Such a special touch is a testament to our dedication to make the wedding day indeed the most memorable day in one’s life, and we hope that Thuy and Long share the same feeling.Read More

Weddings contain some of the most precious moments in one’s life, and us at SDE Weddings are more than delighted to be a part of capturing these moments, and creating mementos that last a lifetime. Such were our sentiments when we were given the precious task of handling the wedding cinematography for Dan and Danielle. A couple whose namesake compliments each other perfectly, and hopefully our service complimented their wedding as well. Our Toronto Wedding Videographer had a blast filming Dan & Danielle’s wedding on September 21st, 2013.

The wedding ceremonies took place at the footsteps of the fall season, in a very special location in Toronto. Our story begins in Old Mills Inn, in the early morning, where the beautiful bride makes preparations for the big day. With mother and bridesmaid on hand, she fits and fashions herself to ensure perfection for the wedding, and indeed for life. Nearing mid-day, a special bouquet of flowers is delivered to the church, Morningside High Park Presbytarian church, to commemorate the holy union, and our bride and groom arrive on the scene. Both entourages in black and white escalades respectively, a fitting contrast for Dan and Danielle who compliment yet complete each other. Guests begin arriving as well, and are greeted by the jovial sounds of the ceremony musicians, Duo D’Amore, ‘the two who are in love’. At noon, the wedding ceremony begins, and the twin fates of Dan and Danielle are made one. As the wedding proper finishes off, the festivities only start to pick up. The faithful couple greet the guests auspiciously at the backdrop of the church’s entrance, and the celebrants begin their trek to the setting of the wedding celebrations.Read More

On Saturday, September 22nd, 2013, we were hired to provide wedding videography and wedding photobooth services for Anne & Enrico’s wedding. We are still currently working on editing the wedding video from the wedding. In the mean time, here are some of the photos from our photobooth that were taken during the wedding reception at the Deer Creek Golf & Banquet Facility.

This was also the first time that we added a life size stand up board of Snooky, Obama and a bear to our photobooth props.

September 15th, 2013 was a very special day for Michael & Judy. This was the day where the couple had decided to join their hands in matrimony at a small & intimate wedding ceremony at the Black Creek Pioneer village. After the wedding ceremony was over, they celebrated their new life together as husband and wife with their 200 guests consisting of family and friends. Their wedding reception was held at the Premier Ballroom & Convention Centre. We were very fortunate to be part of their special day and had a great time in capturing these photobooth photos from their wedding reception.

September 14th of 2013 was a very special day for Mallika & Neel. On this day, the lovely couple traveled all the way from Washington, DC to the Grand Empire Banquet & Convention Centre in Brampton, Ontario (100 Nexus Avenue, Brampton ON L6P 2K9) for their wedding ceremony and reception. We had the special privilege of filming their wedding and providing them with our photobooth service at their wedding reception.

During our pre-wedding meeting, Mallika actually suggested the idea of getting a giant picture frame as a prop for our photobooth. We thought it was an excellent idea and so we went ahead and bought a giant picture frame the day before the wedding from Michael’s Art Supplies.

Here are the some of the photos from our photobooth. Needless to say, all the guests had a fun time taking silly photos with all of our photo-booth props.
